Christmas party fish and chips for Frimley Green events
About our Christmas party fish and chips in Frimley Green
The Christmas season is short and busy, so it pays to ask early. We’re often asked to cater festive gatherings after Christmas and christmas customer days, serving cod and chips, mushy peas and gravy.
For a Christmas get-together near Frimley Green, a chip van on the drive is a treat. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.
How the day works
We don’t cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. Sunset in Frimley Green in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the serving time
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Plan where the queue will stand

What else we do in Frimley Green
Christmas parties in Frimley Green: local tips
Frimley Green is about 1 mile south of Frimley, in Surrey. Tell us where your Christmas party in Frimley Green will be, and we’ll plan access and set-up. We cover all 395 towns and villages across Surrey. Our bookings stretch from Frimley Green to Guildford (about 8 miles away).
Christmas fairs at a church such as Church of St Andrew can book the van as a hot-food stall. A winter fair at a school like Cross Farm Infant School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.
Wherever your Christmas party is in GU16 and GU14, we can fry fresh for your guests. From Cross Lane, Sturt Road and Beech Road or a nearby road, we can park up and fry there. We also bring the van to Christmas parties in Frimley (1 mile north), Deepcut (1 mile north-east), Watchmoor (2 miles north-west), Camberley (2 miles north) and York Town (3 miles north-west). Further out, we also take the van to Guildford (8 miles south-east), Woking (7 miles east), Farnham (7 miles south-west), Egham (12 miles north-east), Walton-on-Thames (15 miles east) and Staines-upon-Thames (13 miles north-east).

Working with your venue
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Organising a club, school or community event in Frimley Green? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
Frimley Green: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Frimley Green?
The closest is Farnborough North station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Could you trade in Frimley Lodge Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
